Why get a massage?

Massage can help get you back in shape after Christmas...

 

Yes, massage really can help you get back into shape after over indulgence at Christmas - quicker and with less pain!

 

Do you dread that feeling of waking up the morning after yesterday’s first gym session in a while with a sore back, aching legs and stiff arms?  Studies show that even a 10 minute post work-out massage can prevent this and have you fit and ready for your next gym session without needing a few days recovery time.  Here’s how:

 

* When you exercise hard, lactic acid builds up in your muscles.  This acid sticks around in your muscles after you’ve stopped exercising and plays a large part in the post-gym soreness you feel.  Swedish massage encourages circulation in your muscles pumping away the lactic acid and replacing it with fresh oxygenated blood.  Just what your muscles need to repair and recover!

 

* A scientific study showed massage prevented the gene in your body that causes inflammation – reducing its effect on you – so no more sore inflamed muscles.

 

* The study also showed that massage increased your mitochondria levels.  Mitochondria are the powerhouse in your cells.  They generate the energy you need to exercise.

 

So there it is – three quick, simple reasons to incorporate a massage into your gym routine!   And “Massage From Heaven” are offering free 30 minute taster sessions to all new customers!  Book yours now!
